Monday, September 8th, 2008
Oklahoma City, Okla. — Nine amateur divisions hit the waters of the Oklahoma River in Oklahoma City today for the final rounds of the 2008 Rockstar Energy Drink WWA Wakeboard World Championships, presented by Supra.
All eyes were on Edmond, Okla. native Rachel Orgill, as the 12-year-old female ripper looked to win a world title on hometown waters in today’s Girls division finals, but top-seeded rider Megan Ethell threw down some impressive maneuvers to take the top spot and win the world title. Orgill finished in third-place behind Ethell and Taylor McCullough.
